I. Introduction T nE AREA constitutes over 60 % of the metamorphic rocks in northwest County Mayo, Ireland (Fig. t). Blanket bog and drift largely obscure the rocks inland, especially in the Ballycroy area where the boundaries of the Kinrovar Schist are not well known, and along the bog over the Corraun Fault northwest of Corraun. Full outcrop maps on a six inch to one mile scale are available at the Geological Survey of Ireland. We generally agree with Kilroe (i9o7) and Trendall & ElweU (I963) but not with that part of Phillips et al. (t969) which includes this area. In the semi-petites, kyanite-staurolite-andesine/oligoclase-garnet-biotite assem- blages in the north gradually give way to albite-biotite-garnet assemblages in the south with a metamorphic break across the Corraun Fault.

  • Chapter 2 Core and Settlement Strategy
    Draft Mayo County Development Plan 2021-2027 CHAPTER 2 CORE AND SETTLEMENT STRATEGY 2.1 Introduction The Core Strategy and Settlement Strategy for the County Development Plan has been prepared through extensive collaboration between the Forward Planning team, Elected Members and all relevant sections of the Council. It has also been informed by the National Planning Framework (NPF), the Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy (RSES) for the Northern and Western Region, the UN Sustainable Goals and the Strategic Economic Drivers influencing the sustainable future growth of County Mayo over the lifetime of the plan and beyond. The challenge is to build on the unique dispersed settlement characteristics of Mayo, in order to provide a balance, link and synergy between the rural countryside and urban settlements of the County. This will be realised through the following vision for County Mayo and the strategic aims set out below. 2.2 Vision of County Mayo ‘To create a sustainable and competitive county that supports the health and well-being of the people of Mayo, providing an attractive destination, as a place in which to live, work, invest, do business and visit, offering high quality employment and educational opportunities within strong and vibrant sustainable communities, whilst ensuring a transition to a low carbon and climate resilient county that supports high environmental quality.’ 2.3 Strategic Aims The strategic aims which relate to the advancement of this vision, are set out hereunder for each chapter of Volume 1 of the County Development Plan. The Plan aims to build on previous successes and to strengthen Mayo’s strategic advantage as a county, to ensure that we meet the needs of our citizens, communities, built and natural environments, infrastructure and economic/employment development to their full potential, while combatting and adapting to climate change.
